• Resumen

  • This article presents some unpublished works by Orsola Maddalena Caccia (1596-1676), daughter of the painter Guglielmo Caccia, known as il Moncalvo. Two of these are depictions of Saint Ursula, a favourite subject for the artist, who was a nun in the Ursuline convent of Moncalvo, and a Virgin and Child and an Angel, both painted around the 1640s, during her most mature phase. On the other hand a small panel of the Virgin Adoring the Child Asleep on the Cross, rather inexperienced as regards composition and more closely tied to the work of Guglielmo Caccia, could belong to a very early period of her career, around 1615-1620.
